The Confederate Socialist States of The Transcaucasus is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by a chairman with an iron fist, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, avant-garde cinema, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 29.063 billion The Transcaucasians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rustavi. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Transcaucasusian economy, worth a remarkable 3,909 trillion Trans Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 134,517 Trans Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Police officers often conceal their identities to safeguard against public complaints, vacationers and business travelers are often warned that they may lose the right to vote if they spend too much time overseas, ten-year-olds are applying for lemonade stand operator licences, and Eagle sanctuaries have been taken over by hydraulic fracturing sites. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Transcaucasus's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is freedom of religion.

The Transcaucasus is ranked 271,285th in the world and 29th in Middle East for Highest Food Quality, scoring 6.67 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
